Default My car dies when I shift it into park...every time...

when I shift my car into park after driving, the RPM's drop really low and then the car stalls and dies. When I am parked and shift throught the gears, when I go from drive to park the RPM's drop really low and the car almost dies but then it doesn't. There are no codes and the CEL isn't on, the only thing I know of is my car is low on coolant and the warning light comes on sometimes. Any ideas on what it could be, it just started doing this yesterday (3/22).

I cleaned it maybe a year ago or so, it wasn't that dirty then. Could it have gone bad?
